Example: If garage temperature = 68°F (20°C) and the outside tempera-
ture = 32°F (0°C) then the cold tire inflation pressure should be increased
by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this
outside temperature condition.
Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi (13 to 40 kPa) during operation.
DO NOT reduce this normal pressure build up or your tire pressure will
be too low.
Tire Pressures For High Speed Operation
The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds and within posted
speed limits. Where speed limits or conditions are such that the vehicle
can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tire inflation pressure is
very important. Increased tire pressure and reduced vehicle loading may
be required for high-speed vehicle operation. Refer to an authorized tire
dealer or original equipment vehicle dealer for recommended safe
operating speeds, loading and cold tire inflation pressures.
WARNING!
High speed driving with your vehicle under maximum load is
dangerous. The added strain on your tires could cause them to fail.
You could have a serious collision. Do not drive a vehicle loaded to
the maximum capacity at continuous speeds above 75 mph
(120 km/h).
Radial Ply Tires
WARNING!
Combining radial ply tires with other types of tires on your vehicle
will cause your vehicle to handle poorly. The instability could cause
a collision. Always use radial ply tires in sets of four. Never combine
them with other types of tires.

mud, or sand and your tire(s) is/ are spinning. Use a gentle
backward and forward rocking motion to free your vehicle for
continued driving. Never stand or permit anyone else to stand near
or behind a tire spinning while attempting to push a vehicle that is
stuck.
SELF SUPPORTING RUNFLAT (SSR) TIRE OWNERS:
CTA does not recommend any repair to or reuse of punctured Continen-
tal SSR tires.
Even a trained tire specialist may be unable to recognize internal
structural damage to a Self Supporting Runflat (SSR) tire resulting from
having been driven in an under inflated or zero inflation pressure
condition. Such damage may not be visible on the surface of the inner
liner or sidewall making it impossible to determine the tire suitability for
repair or reuse. CTA does not recommend any repair to or reuse of
Continental SSR tires. You may visit
www.continentaltire.comand
select Customer Care FAQ’s to obtain additional SSR information.
TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE OWNERS:
CTA does not recommend any repair to or reuse of punctured Temporary
Spare Tires.
CONTISEAL™ TIRE OWNERS:
A ContiSeal™ tire differs from a
non-ContiSeal™ tire in that it has
a sticky, viscous layer from
shoulder to shoulder along the
inner liner. This layer is an integral part of the ContiSeal™ tires. It is not
designed or intended to act as a permanent puncture repair (See
information below). If an object up to 3/16ths (5 mm) diameter pen-
etrates the tread of the ContiSeal™ tire, this sticky, viscous layer is
designed to surround and adhere to the puncturing object and prevent air
loss from the tire by providing a near instantaneous seal. If the punctur-
ing object becomes dislodged from the tire, the material is designed to
seal most holes made by objects up to 3/16” (5 mm) diameter. While
ContiSeal™ tires significanty reduce the incidence of flats they are not
designed to be driven under inflated or in a flat condition. In all other
aspects, ContiSeal™ tires perform exactly like non-ContiSeal™ tires. As
with any tire, regularly inspect ContiSeal™ tires for evidence of cuts,

•EXPLOSION OF TIRE/RIM ASSEMBLY DUE TO IMPROPER
MOUNTING.Only specially trained persons should mount tires.
•FAILURE TO MOUNT RADIAL TIRES ON APPROVED RIMS.
•FAILURE TO DEFLATE SINGLE OR DUAL ASSEMBLIES COM-
PLETELY BEFORE DEMOUNTING.
•TIRE SPINNING.On slippery surfaces such as snow, mud, ice, etc.,
do not spin tires in excess of 35 mph (55 kph), as indicated on the
speedometer.
•EXCESSIVE WHEEL SPINNING.This can also result in tire disinte-
gration or axle failure.
WARNING!
Vehicle handling, traction, ride comfort and other performance
parameters may be significantly affected by a change in tire size or
type. Before replacing tires, always consult and follow the vehicle
owner ’s manual because some vehicle manufacturers prohibit
changing tire size. When selecting tires that are different from the
original equipment size make certain:
1. The tires have adequate load-carrying capacity based on the
vehicle placard,
2. The tires have sufficient inflation pressure to carry the load and
3. There is proper clearance with no interference points between the
tire and vehicle.
The consumer must be aware to always drive safely and obey all
traffic laws. Avoid sudden, sharp turns or aggressive lane changes.
Failure to follow any of these warnings may result in loss of control
of the vehicle, leading to an accident and serious injury or death.
TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
The easiest way to help ensure satisfactory mileage and performance
from your Goodyear or Dunlop tires is to give them a simple but frequent
(at least monthly) inspection for proper inflation, even tread wear and the
presence of any damage.
DO MAINTAIN PROPER INFLATION PRESSURE IN YOUR TIRES
Proper inflation pressure is necessary for optimum tire performance,
safety and fuel economy. Check inflation pressures at least once a month
and before long trips. Use an accurate tire pressure gauge. Always check

TO PROLONG TIRE LIFE DURING A SYSTEM ALERT
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire can be driven at low or zero air
pressure (refer to your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for these limitations). To
help prolong the life of a tire operating under low-inflation conditions,
drive at a speed as far below 50 mph (80 kph) as possible. Also, drive the
shortest distance possible before obtaining tire service. Taking these
precautions will increase the chance that your tire will be repairable.
SERVICE AFTER A SYSTEM ALERT
To obtain service after operating under low-inflation conditions, contact
your Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility. Trained service
personnel will inspect your tires to determine if they are in need of repair
or replacement. To locate the nearest authorized Goodyear or Dunlop
Run-Flat service facility, call 1-800- GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .
WARNING!
Because of the unique characteristics of Run-Flat tires, the wheels
on which they are mounted and your vehicle’s tire pressure
monitoring system, all tire service work other than routine inflation
maintenance and external inspections must be performed by service
personnel at a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility.
Do not attempt to mount or demount Run-Flat tires yourself; serious
injury or death could result. Only specially trained persons should
mount, demount and repair Run-Flat tires, and more than 40 psi
(270 kPa) may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and clip-on
extension air hose must be used if more than 40 psi (270 kPa) is need
to seat beads.
TIRE REPAIR
Like any other Goodyear or Dunlop speed-rated, high-performance tire,
the Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire may be repaired to correct a
puncture in the tread, but PROPER MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES
MUST BE USED. Contact a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility
for information on proper repairs. For the location of the nearest facility,
call 1-800-GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .

and beads. Do not exceed the maximum recommended pressure to
seat beads on rim. Use remote control inflation equipment and
inflation cage.
NOTE:
•Never inflate over 40 psi to seat beads.
•Mount radial ply tires only on rims designated by wheel manufacturer
as suitable for radial tire.
•Only specially trained persons shall mount tires.
•AIR PRESSURE
Check the pressure in your tires, including your spare, at least
monthly, and always before and during extended driving. Check tires
cold (at least 3 hours after the vehicle has been stopped and before it
is driven more than 1.6 kilometers or 1 mile). Do not reduce pressure
when tires are hot, use an accurate air pressure gauge to check
pressure and maintain it at the level recommended on the vehicle tire
placard or in the Owner ’s Manual. Under inflation produces extreme
flexing of sidewalls and builds up heat to the point that premature tire
failure may occur. Over inflation can cause the tires to be more
susceptible to impact damage. Cold tire pressures, however, should
never be higher than the limit molded on the sidewall.
•LOAD LIMITS
Never exceed the load-carrying limits molded onto the sidewall of
your tires or the maximum vehicle load limit as shown on the vehicle
tire placard, whichever is less. Overloading builds up excessive heat in
the tire and leads to early and/or sudden failure.
•HAZARDS
Avoid running over objects (e.g., chuckholes, rocks, curbs, metal, glass,
etc.) which may possibly cause internal tire damage. Continued use of
a tire that has suffered internal damage (which may not be externally
visible) can lead to dangerous tire failure. Determination of suspected
internal damage requires demounting the tire from its rim and
examination by trained tire personnel.

•WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced by trained
personnel when 2/32 nds inch (1.6 mm) of tread depth remain, as
indicated by treadwear indicators molded into the tread grooves. Use
of worn-out tires (less than 2/32 nds of an inch remaining tread depth)
increases the probability of tire failure. In most states, it is illegal to
drive with less than 2/32 nds of an inch of remaining tread depth.
•SPEED LIMITS
Operating your vehicle in excess of lawful speed limits or the
maximum speeds justified by driving conditions can be dangerous.
Excessive speed creates heat buildup in a tire, leading to possible tire
failure.
•SPEED-RATED TIRES
Speed-rated tires are identified by letters S, T, H, V, W, or Z as either
part of the size designation (e.g., HR), or part of the service description
adjacent to the size designation (e.g., 94H) and indicates the maximum
speed capability of the tire when properly loaded and inflated.
However, even when properly loaded and inflated, driving for pro-
longed periods at high speeds can cause tire damage and possible tire
failure which could lead to an accident. Original equipment speed-
rated tires must be replaced with tires of the same or higher speed
rating if the speed capability of the vehicle is to be maintained.
Consult your Hankook dealer for the tires best suited to your vehicle
driving habit. Repairing of speed-rated tires must be done in accor-
dance with RMA repair procedures and is limited to one 1/4diameter
repair in the tread area.
•TIRE ROTATION
Rotate your tires for longer tire life. Front and rear tires perform
different jobs and can wear differently. Consult your vehicle Owner ’s
Manual for mileage recommendations and rotation patterns.

WARNING!(Continued)
•Check the cold inflation pressure in all of your tires, including the
spare tire, at least once every week and always prior to long
distance trips. Failure to maintain the proper air inflation pressure
may result in improper vehicle handling, and may cause rapid and
irregular tire wear, reduction in tire durability, loss of vehicle
control, or sudden tire failure that may lead to property damage,
serious personal injury or death.
•Use an accurate tire gauge to check tire air pressures. Always
maintain the proper recommended air inflation pressure in all
tires. If there is an indication that one of your tires has lost four or
more pounds of air pressure, immediately look for signs of
penetration through the tire, valve leaks or wheel damage that may
account for the air loss. You should also have your tires inspected
by a tire retailer immediately.
•Air pressure should be checked when tires are cold (before they
have been driven), ideally in the early morning. Driving, regard-
less of distance, causes tires to heat up and simultaneously
increase air pressure.
•Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure for the tire.
•Never bleed air from hot tires as this may result in underinflation.
•→Inspect your tires daily. If you notice any damage to your tires
or wheels, replace them with a spare and immediately visit any tire
retailer for advice. Driving over potholes, curbs, wood debris,
metal, etc., can damage a tire and should be safely avoided. Contact
with such hazards requires an immediate and thorough tire
inspection by your tire retailer.
•Always examine your tires for penetrations, bulges, cracks, cuts,
and abnormal wear – particularly at the tire edges – which may be
caused by, for example, vehicle misalignment or tire underinfla-
tion. Failure to properly control a vehicle when one or more tires
are underinflated may result in an accident. Use of a damaged tire
may result in rapid air loss, including sudden tire failure.
•An explosion of the tire/rim assembly may occur due to improper
mounting. Only specially trained persons should mount tires.
•→Failure to store tires in accordance with the following recom-
mendations may result in damage to your tires, reduction in tire
durability, or sudden tire failure:

STUDDED WINTER/SNOW TIRES
•Studded winter/snow tires have higher traction qualities under most
winter weather conditions.
•If studded winter/snow tires are installed on the front axle of any
vehicle, studded winter/snow tires must also be installed on the rear
axle. DO NOT apply studded winter/snow tires only to the front axle.
•If studded winter/snow tires are installed on the rear axle of any
vehicle, it is strongly recommended that they should also be installed
on the front axle. Only if studded winter/snow tires are installed on all
wheel positions of a vehicle will optimum handling characteristics be
achieved.
WARNING!
Installing only two studded winter/snow tires on the front axle of
any vehicle (including front-wheel-drive vehicles) without studded
winter/snow tires on the rear axle can cause adverse vehicle
handling characteristics. This can result in a loss of vehicle control,
which could cause serious personal injury or death.
mNOTICE!
In some cases, the vehicle manufacturer may specifically advise against
replacing fewer than all four tires. Always check and follow the
recommendations in the vehicle Owner’s Manual. For 4WD and AWD
vehicles, even small differences in outside diameter may cause drivetrain
damage or mechanical malfunction.
REPLACING TWO TIRES
•When a pair of replacement tires is selected in the same size and
construction as those on the vehicle, the two newer tires must be
installed on the rear axle and must be of equal or higher speed rating
than the front tires. Generally, new tires with deeper tread will provide
better grip and evacuate water more effectively, which is important as
a driver approaches hydroplaning situations. Placing greater traction
on the rear axle on wet surfaces is necessary to prevent a possible
oversteer condition and loss of vehicle stability.

•When two new tires have been installed onto the rear axle positions,
they are to be kept on the rear but rotated from side to side. This is
recommended after installing two new tires to the rear position, or if
you discover significant tread depth differences between the front and
rear positions during rotation intervals.
